Images of India in American minds
by M. Shankar on Feb 29, 2008 10:00 AM   Permalink

Either the concerned Ministries of Information & Broadcasting, or Trade & Commerce, or Tourism and Cultural Affairs, etc which have a responsibility to project the realistic and right image of India are not doing a good job with the USA, or the writer has happened to have met exceptionally ill informed morons who knew nothing even about the basic truths. Their knowledge was limited to the old Indian tales of rope tricks, and snake charmers, and probably the Maharajas and Princes! We can only hope such ill informed groups are very small in number.

I only shudder to imagine if such people came to power there and were to deal with them what kind of endless problems we would get into.
